\section{Background}
The paper by Oettle \emph{et al.}~\cite{oet07adj} provided evidence
for efficacy of gemcitabine in improving disease-free survival for
. . .
The results are shown in the figure below.\footnote{Knots
were placed at 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, 1.5, 3, and 4
years. Ordinary least squares was used to fit this cumulative hazard
function. Simulations that follow are based on this fitted survival
curve, by drawing random standard exponentially-distributed random variables
and solving for time $t$ so that the fitted spline function equals
the exponential random variable.}
